ncdata#
NetCDF data interoperability.
Represents generic netcdf data as Python objects, equivalent to actual data files, but independent and freely modifiable.
Also supports translation to and from common analysis packages, so that data can be freely exchanged between packages without data copying.
In particular Ncdata exchanges data between Xarray and Iris as efficiently as possible.
“lossless, copy-free and lazy-preserving”.
This enables the user to freely mix+match operations from both projects, getting the “best of both worlds”.
